Chicago Pedway Near Randolph-Washington Station

Chicago Pedway Near Randolph Washington Station
An empty corridor of the Chicago Pedway connects the Randolph/Washington subway station to surrounding office buildings and shopping centers beneath the Loop. The Pedway system, developed beginning in the 1950s, extends for more than 40 city blocks, linking major transit lines with civic and commercial spaces. Its mid-century design—terrazzo floors, tiled walls, and fluorescent lighting—reflects the city’s practical approach to all-weather pedestrian infrastructure, a defining feature of downtown Chicago’s urban core.
